I can very much relate to your post, especially with fears I have for my daughter about to enter kindergarten. She talks so very much and I am so scared she will not be a great listener (and does that go hand in hand with being a great learner as well!?). Continuing on though that maybe it is a sign teacher do need to stop talking at students and instead engage them in lessons. I hope that I can be one of the teacher students will be able to connect with and feel engaged in learning. I know that in my own experiences I don't do as well in classes where they are strictly lecture, I 50% of the time can't focus! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts, I enjoyed reading your post thoroughly!

I am currently an Elementary Education major at the University of South Alabama and in a class called EDM 310. This is my technology class to prepare me to be a more technologically literate teacher. My teacher Dr. Strange has linked me to your blog to follow.<br />I have really enjoyed your blog. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and ideas. I know it will all be very useful to me when I begin teaching.<br />I really enjoyed this blog too. I have two children and my 3 year old is constantly saying “I need to talk or let me talk”. I agree with you in that “less is more”. I think you nailed it on the head when you discussed being more actively involved verses sitting and taking notes. I think it is important for children and adults to actively engage their minds rather than just sitting and listening. I know I get more out of a class when I am involved and doing something than just sitting and taking notes. My mind tends to wander to the other things I need to be doing, so I know children are the same. <br />Thank you for sharing this and your other blogs. It has been very eye opening. Hopefully one day educators can get on board with this thinking and change the classroom for the better. It would not only change the classroom for the kids but teachers as well. What great things are to come because of teachers like you sharing. Thank you!Olivia Bushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06410227500473746567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6164400845780458490.post-11189675459628588772011-02-01T21:05:55.308-05:002011-02-01T21:05:55.308-05:00Hi, Mrs. Hernandez

I believe if more people should just let out the feelings inside of them. This would clear the mind for new thoughts and ideas. This also lets you remember how you felt when you put it into words so when you come back to finish your post, you will know where you left off. Thank you for the post and feel free to check out my blog at. http//SmithJohn.edm310.blogspot.comJohn Russell Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12097159793849554815noreply@blogger.com
